What are your thoughts on the Dragon tape deck?

What are your thoughts on the Dragon tape deck?
LUxman actually had some very good tape decks in the early to mid 80s...I wish I had the model #...but I bought one of the first decks to have dolby C...3 head/3 motor design...for around $500...it had a "mechanized" faceplate which moved when tur... 
Is it worth it?
PMC db-1 and the Revel M20s...these are two very detailed and revealing small monitors that will perform very well in small rooms...and supply a surprising amount of articulate bass...the PMC is about a grand I believe...also...NSMaudio.com...they... 
Vandersteen or Klipsch
two vastly different speakers...the Klipsch a more forward,aggressive sound...the Vandies a more relaxed,polite, old school Hi-fi SOund...very open midrange...rolled off highs...somewhat slow,plodding bass...they are by know means "quick" or "tigh... 
Are NHT VT2.4's harsh, or is it just me?
Paradigm Studio 20...and I used my favorite reference quality recording..."Darkside of the Moon"...which is known to bring out the best (or worst) characteristics of a speaker...and in terms of "out of box" imaging...the 1.5 was clearly behind the... 
Affordable intergrated with phono stage..new/used?
Luxman L-235 or L-225...anybody familiar with these intergrated amps? Year,Price,Reliability,etc.... 
Are NHT VT2.4's harsh, or is it just me?
I have heard the older NHTs as well...and granted the soft dome is an improvement...but I am still not convinced of their "Focused Geometry" slanted baffle...the soundstage never gets outside of the speaker...the imaging between the speakers is de... 
Best Dark Sounding Amp For Bright Speakers?
I have recently heard the Kappa 200 monitors...and they didnt sound bright to me...I dont know how old yours are...but the 200 is danish made...and struck me as being slightly laid back in character...as far as changing gear...there are 2 options.... 
Are NHT VT2.4's harsh, or is it just me?
Never been a big NHT fan...those tweeters are just too bright and aggressive for my taste...they have a loyal following...and for HT are pretty good...but for extended listening periods...they are just too much... 
Box speakers that sound like Electrostats?
Second the Spendor recommendation...one of the few box speakers that really is very open and transparent...they are a bit colored in sound...the highs are muted and the midrange has a slight "bump" emphasis...but if you enjoy vocals...they are abo... 
What is the best speaker for a small room 10X11
Speaker placement and room dampening should suffice...I would experiment with this before investing in any new gear...to move beyond Dunlavy is no easy task...and more difficult since they went out of business...first off...if you have a hard surf...

Need monitors with a BIG sound
These are reknown for having a huge soundstage and usable bass down to 32hz...check out stereophile archives for review...hard speaker to audition because of limited dealers etc...but worth the effort...and you could probably could live without a ... 
Need monitors with a BIG sound
I dont know what they are doing over the pond...but just how they produce such a full,rich,and very open sound from such a tiny speaker baffles me...go used...they are pricey with USA conversion...and you will need a sub for full range...but trust...
